Arrest of Bishop Seghers's Murderer.

New BEDFORD, Mass. Aug 29.-Third Lieu
tenant Charles S. Kennedy, of the United States
steamer Bear, writes from the Arctic, under
date of Port Clarence. July 10, to his father in
this city, stating that he had arrested the
derer of Bishop Seghers Kennedy sworn in
2 deputy United States marshal at Ounalaska.
and reaching st. Michaelis, he arrested Frank
Fuller, who had been attendant upon the late
Bishop. Fuller is very quiet. well-educated and
gentlemanly, but is evidently insane on some
points. He had the deusion that the Bishop
was plotting to cause his death. One
night last November he woke the Bishop
and told him that one of them would have to
die, and as the Bishop the better prepared
he must be the one. He then fired rife bullet
through the Bishops head and afterward
brought the body on dog sled to St Michaeis,
where it now is in possession of priest. The
murder was kept secret from the miners on the
river, lest they should lynch Fuller. The pris-
oner is quiet on board, and spends much of his
time in religious exercises. He will be taken to
Sitka for trial. Lieutenant Kennedy thinks
there is a possibility that some of the crew of
twenty-five of the whser Napoleon, which
was lost in 1855, may be alive

man, with the understanding that the amount
was to be repaid when he reached Leba-
The young away with the
money, but returned in five minutes and offered

then disappeared. Mr.. Crater soon discovered
that he had been heeced and reported
the matter to the police. He says he thinks he

and SUSPECTS that they followed him all the way
